Obesity from 1985-2009



An short video clip that can be found on the Center for Disease Control's website that show the ever expanding problem of obesity from state to state from 1985 on to 2009. According to the Center for Disease Control, in 1985 there were no states in the US above the 15% obesity (BMI greater than 30) mark. By 2009 there was only one state BELOW the 20% mark. Even though we spent nearly $47 billion trying to "solve it." Apparently we are doing something wrong.
